I am struggling with severe itching on legs and feet. I have taken two benadryl, 1 mg xanax, used benadryl lotion..... to no avail

My nerves are in bad shape because I realized I have no more options but a divorce after 33 yrs of marriage. Maybe it’s emotional too. I have the itching now and then but this is the worst it has ever been

Hi Christinus18 😊🌸🌿🦋

I’m sooo very sorry about your divorce and the suffering you’re going through. Could you see your doctor for a nerve agent like Valium or the like to calm you down and hopefully the itching too? Probably need to go through the psych dept to get that prescribed. I’m from the USA 🇺🇸 and things are done a little different than there.

I just prayed for you and hope that all will go well Blessings abundant.

😊🌸🌿🦋🤗💕😘🙏s

Do go and see your gp , it could be a reaction to medication, your gp might prescribe a cream to reduce the itch

You are going through a rough time with your divorce so I'm not surprised your immune system is working overtime. You should see your GP asap and try some relaxation techniques too. Hope things settle down for you soon, the sun will shine again. Keep well and start planning your better future x
